A KIND WORD.

A recent number Of Bradstreet's says
The State OF Nevada was never more
prosperous than at present. The influx
of Eastern and foreign capital has worked
wonders in the way of developing vast
agricultural and mining resources. The
dark green fields of never-failing alfalfa,
which meet the eye in every direction,
over the plain at Reno, and in the vari-
GUS valleys along the route of the Vir-
ginia Il Truckee and Carson & Colorado
railroads are OF sufficient proof of the
fertility OF the sagebrush desert under
irrigation. Capital invested in either
sinking for water or bringing it from the
mountain ranges which encircle the Ne.
vada valleys will more than treble it.
self in a short time. The smelling and
reduction works lately established at
Reno by San Francisco capitalists are
overrun with rebellious ores, which had
formerly to be shipped at a great expense
to Salt Lake or San Francisco. An
Eastern company proposes to open a
establishment on a large scale,
snd negotiations are well advanced to-
ward that end. They have an immense
and remunerative field 10 which to work,
IS the saving in freight will in itself be
enormous, which permits of very low.
grade ore being worked to advantage.
The various railroad companies through.
tut Nevada are very generously reduc-
ng the rates so as to bring these works
within the reach of all.
